Chapter 8 Tiangang
The purpose of coming to Yuntai was to take a big steamer, which has been a dock city since ancient times, and there is no particularly attractive landscape. After a simple and casual turn, it was very tiring to travel for a long time, so we asked for the boarding location and bought a ticket to the harbor the next morning. I found a hotel nearby and slept on my head.
The next morning, full of state, I came to the port early to take pictures. The ship Bangchuidao was quietly moored on the shore, and everyone lined up to board the ship in the order in which they came.
The boat is so big!
Come from out of town, a local accent answers.
Right.
This is the smallest steamer in this port, as going to Sky Harbor is the closest place.
Wow! I looked around for little stars in my eyes. Unfortunately, we didn't find any other ships anchored at the place where we boarded. I don't know if there are no other ships, or if they don't board the ship in one place. Anyway, I was quite reluctant to get on the ship.
Carried by the flow of passengers, he entered the cabin and found his place to sit down. I was told by the radio that I was not allowed to move around while leaving the dock. Because I was afraid of seasickness, I sat honestly by the window and looked at the sea outside. Later, when I was allowed to go to the side of the boat to watch, I didn't dare to go out. I am afraid that in case of seasickness, I will keep vomiting, vomiting all the time, vomiting until the sky is dark, and it will also affect the next trip plan to Tiangang.
It took about half an hour to take the boat to Tiangang, and my husband also decisively chose to stay by my side, two people held hands, looking at the dark blue water outside the window, the breeze was not dry, the sea was very calm, and the sea and sky were the same. Looking at it from afar, my mood is comfortable, and I suddenly feel that the world is vast and the individual is small. The experience of a drop in the ocean is especially obvious.
There was no bump at all and we arrived safely at Tiangang. Take the bus from the port to the city, and the road is very fast. Tiangang, we're here.
Tiangang is a large city integrating port, international trade, metropolis commerce and tourism. There are nationally renowned seaview parks, underground sea worlds, large zoos, and science and technology museums. Specialty fresh seafood. You can taste the food, you can travel the landscape in different places, you can buy gifts and souvenirs for relatives and friends, as long as you have enough RMB in your hand, then there are all kinds of goods. The point is that for salarymen, prices are not outrageously expensive and acceptable.
When we got off the bus in the city center, the first thing we did was to buy a local tourist map according to our usual travel habits. They are widely available at roadside newsagents. Especially in big cities, there are many newsstands, and you can find the next one more than ten meters away.
The two of us immediately began to study and plan the travel route of Tiangang, how to save time and effort, not to take the wrong road, not to spend money. Because all the way down, food, housing, transportation, and the newlyweds have little money left, and everything has to be planned. But that doesn't stop us from playing.
In the end, I decided to go to the station first to buy a night return ticket, of course, the later the better, so that I have more time to play during the day. It's also a cheaper slow train. But this leaves us with a lot of choice.
Fortunately, the traffic in Tiangang is very developed, and you really have to take the Tiger Leap Express the next morning, which is comfortable to sit on, the back of the chair can be tilted back, and you can basically sleep all the way back on your back. But the cost is more expensive than the train. The slow train is the most suitable way for us to return home. However, the older marriage leave is seven days, plus a maximum of eight days of rest, marriage has to consume three days, and the five days of visiting four places can no longer compress the time. After all, the capital is very large, and no matter how compressed it is, it takes two days of non-stop travel, getting up early and visiting late, and barely wandering through the four famous scenic spots and the capital's food street night market.
My husband and I lined up in two adjacent queues, praying in our hearts that there would be a slow train at night. Because we don't have any more time or money. My husband lined up to the ticket gate first, and watched him make a victory gesture, and I knew that it was done!
